Calvin on Ambrose on Jesus in prayer

He is our mouth, through which we speak to the Father; he is our eye through which we see the Father; he is our hand through which we offer ourselves to the Father. Unless he intercedes, there is no intercourse with God either for us or for all saints.


Calvin quoting Ambrose (Institutes, 3.20.21, Battles p879)
